[Elecraft] K3 Digital audio out ?

[DH2SE]

Julian,

I have the same problem using the K3 wireless around the house e.g. while
sitting in the garden. But I need also the possibility to use the K3 from
far away. Bluetooth is suitable if you use a Jabra A-210 Module for the
audio transmission directly to a headset and a second Bluetooth dongle in
combination w/ a serial to usb converter for the data to a PC / notebook
computer. I used this already but unfortunately, the range of Bluetooth
Class 2 or 3 gadgets is not very nice (less than 30 ft.). But I there is a
supplier for a Bluetooth modul which supports Class 1, I'm working on it.

I do have access to a embedded system that comes with a ARM7 µController. I
should be possible to run an embedded Linux at that device. It would have
all necessary ports (2x RS-232, USB (the protocol is already implemented),
Ethernet (the protocol is already implemented), native UART's). The size of
that board is only 800 x 300 mm (31,5 x 11,8 inch.). The price is less than
100 €. That should fit into the K3 with no problem. The only thing is: I do
not have the time to develop it using Linux or a custom made firmware :-(
Getting retiered is estimated by the year 2038.
